St. Anthony grabs slim lead after one quarter

Another unconventional start for St. Anthony, as they spent the first quarter feeling out Plainfield.

The Friars trailed the Cardinals 10-8 with 2:00 to go in the first, before storming back with a rebound and score by Lucious Jones to tie the game at 10.

Later, Kyle Anderson drove to the hoop for the easy layup to give the Friars their first lead since it was 2-0. Finally, Myles Mack stepped in front of a pass and drove right to the hoop for the score to make it 14-10.

Then with seconds ticking off the clock, the Cardinals reminded the Friars that it will be a long night when Diijon Allen-Jordan knocked a open three point shot to cut the Friars lead to 14-13 after one quarter.
